KANPE KANAVAL with the participation of Arcade Fire and more

On February 23rd, the KANPE foundation is organizing its first major KANAVAL fundraising event, in collaboration with the PHI Centre and POP Montreal.

Haiti’s legendary carnival will come to our city – with wild authentic masks, original costumes, and traditional Haitian delicacies all to the beat of Haitian dance troupes and music. Performances will include local Haitian band Doody and Kami, and the participation of Montreal band Arcade Fire. You’ll also be transported to Haiti with an art exhibition by famed British photographer Leah Gordon. There will be plenty of different prizes to win, including a trip for two in North America or a sun destination, courtesy of Air Canada.
